1/2 pound snow peas, trimmed and strings discarded
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted lightly
1. Cut snow peas on diagonal into long thin slices. Blanch
snow peas 30 seconds in a large pot of lightly salted
water. Drain in a colander. Rinse under cold water.
Drain well; transfer to a bowl. Toss snow peas with oil,
soy sauce, green onion, and sesame seeds.
Snow peas have the lowest carb count of all peas, and they are
high in fiber, too. Very brief cooking keeps them bright green
and crunchy.
